The other day, I wrote about my bus routine.

This week, my work schedule has been thrown off due to a coworker needing time off for a funeral. I’m only too glad to shift things up for that sort of reason. Consequently, I had yesterday off and found myself taking a different bus downtown in time for choir practice. Cue the shock of my life when I step onto the bus and spot young mum who I usually see on the other bus, this time with no child.

I have now figured it out! She is a UVic student, leaves school on the bus from campus, gets off and picks up son at day care before catching the other bus two blocks over that will take her downtown. And I’m not a stalker.

Peoples lives are so interesting.
